IPL 2026: KKR Batter Raghuvanshi Given Out For Obstructing The Field Against LSG
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) Angkrish Raghuvanshi on Sunday became only the fourth batter in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 history to be dismissed for obstructing the field, during his sides clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. The rare dismissal occurred on the final ball of the fifth over of KKRs innings. Raghuvanshi, batting on nine off seven deliveries, punched the ball towards mid-on off pacer Prince Yadav and set off for a single before aborting the run midway after being told to do so by all-rounder Cameron Green. In his attempt to return to the crease, Raghuvanshi made a turnaround from one side of the pitch to the other and was struck by the incoming throw. Seeing that, LSG skipper Rishabh Pant and his teammates immediately appealed for obstructing the field. The matter was sent upstairs, where third umpire Rohan Pandit reviewed the footage and determined that the batter had clearly altered his running path while attempting to get back to his crease, thereby intentionally interfering with the throw.

IPL 2026: Hopefully, LSG Finds Batting Rhythm In Power-play, Get Back To Winning Ways, Says Marsh
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Lucknow Super Giants batting all-rounder Mitchell Marsh admitted the side has struggled to find fluency at the top of the order in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, adding that rediscovering rhythm in the power-play overs with the bat will be key to turning their campaign around. LSG have managed just two wins in seven games to be in ninth place in the points table and need a win over KKR at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium to get their campaign on track. Well, I've probably got a similar strike rate to what my dad used to have, so I'm trying to work on that. But we've had our challenges with the bat. We haven't been able to get going in the power play. We haven't had the loss of wickets, or just haven't been able to find a rhythm to set up our innings. So we're looking to make as much impact as we can tonight in those first six overs and hopefully get back to winning ways, said Marsh in a pre-game chat with the broadcasters. Asked if LSG head coach Justin Langers comparison of the pitch to the WACA in Perth is agreeable, Marsh said, It's probably not quite the WACA, but I think I mean, I've certainly enjoyed batting here. It is a big ground, but in terms of grounds around the world, it's still reasonably small. We haven't had the loss of wickets, or just haven't been able to find a rhythm to set up our innings. So we're looking to make as much impact as we can tonight in those first six overs and hopefully get back to winning ways, said Marsh in a pre-game chat with the broadcasters. Also Read: Live Cricket Score LSG have used three opening combinations, with Marsh batting alongside Rishabh Pant, Aiden Markram, and Ayush Badoni. Quizzed on this musical chairs, Marsh said, Look, those discussions are probably above my pay grade when it comes to this franchise, thankfully. I don't mind who I open the batting with, to be honest. I think whoever it is, it's all about us getting off to as good a start as possible and just having an impact. Article Source: IANS

LSG head into the fixture after a setback against Rajasthan Royals, a result that has put them under pressure in the standings. Despite the loss, there were encouraging signs from the bowling unit, which delivered disciplined performances. Mohammed Shami, Prince Yadav and Mohsin Khan stood out with economical spells.
